The Lightweight standout brings the whole show to each and every event he competes in, and took a notable victory over the US fighter Michael Brightmon, in his last BAMMA bout.

Fletcher is currently 5-1 in his BAMMA career with further wins over the likes of Tim Newman, Tony Hervey & Jason 'Daddy Cool' Ball. His only loss at BAMMA came at the hands of current lightweight champion Mansour Barnaoui in a dazzling one round back and forth war, before tapping out to the champion.

From the North East of England and fighting out of Unity Gym & Spartan Gym in Sunderland, the Freakshow is always preparing himself for his next challenge. With the first of his bouts on the new agreement yet to be announced, you can guarantee that the legions of Freakshow fans will be eagerly awaiting the news.

As ever Freakshow was not short of a thing or two to say about making BAMMA his home once more for the foreseeable future:

"It's an easy choice for me. BAMMA let me be the fighter that I want to be & let me express myself my way. They understand that I train my backside off in order to walk out & have some fun & I love them for that!"

Ashley Bothwell (BAMMA Managing Director):

"We are delighted that Colin has chosen the BAMMA promotion to continue his MMA career. He is undoubtably one of Europe's most entertaining and talented fighters, and Colin brings the house down whenever he competes. He gives so much of himself in every performance, and I know that the fans appreciate that fact and love him for it. From a BAMMA perspective, it is another sign of the development of the brand. Europe's best want to be a part of the hugely exciting journey that we are currently on, and Colin's commitment is another sign of that."
